In the years before the Russian Revolution, diplomats across Europe
were widely condemned for lacking the skills needed to cope in the
international environment. They were also frequently criticized for
being out of touch with public opinion and too ready to clothe
their activities in a veil of secrecy. This book suggests that
these charges were unfair and that in both Britain and Russia the
role of diplomats and foreign ministry officials was governed by
changes in the domestic political environment. While they played an
important part in determining the foreign policy of their
countries, their influence was often much weaker than their critics
assumed.
